About Geisha
How stunning is this little lady? Geisha is a petite 5 year old girl with lots of attitude. She loves snuggling in blankets and will demand your attention when she wants it.
Unfortunately Geisha has been diagnosed with HCM and is currently on medication that she will need for the rest of her life. Regular appointments with a certified cardiologist will also be required, at her most recent appointment with Dr Richard Woolley we were told that she is doing well and the disease has not progressed any further. Her next scan will be due in November 2022. So far she is responding really well to her medication, but as with all cases of HCM there are no guarantees and her new owners would need to be understanding of this. We are looking for someone to provide her an attentive, loving home and spoil her for the rest of her life, no matter how long it may be - we understand this may not be for everyone, HCM is a heartbreaking disease, but we trust that there is a wonderful new family out there that will be able to support her through it.
Geisha is curious by nature and may be okay with another pet if they had a proper, slow introduction - but she is a princess and would love being a spoilt only pet even more! Someone who is home a lot would be perfect as she loves company. She would not suit a home with children as they make her anxious.
We are not in a rush to rehome her, our focus is on finding the perfect place for her to be comfortable and cared for with someone who understands her needs.
Medical notes
Geisha has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), she is currently taking atenolol morning & night and is responding well to the medication. She will require heart scans (at this stage yearly) to monitor the progress of the disease.
Her medication currently costs $145 approximately every 6 weeks. Appointments with a veterinary cardiologist are approximately $450.
